HTTPS adds overhead both bandwidth and CPU. In case of large file downloads, the bandwidth overhead is going to be large, since it prevents all caching.

Since I have to pay for both of those from my pocket, I am not inclined to do so to work around a few broken ISPs. Hopefully, weeks where the installers are exactly the same size as the previous weeks', will be rare.
